No, I hate that idea. Saying "only those who have earned it through effort and discipline should be allowed to do X" goes against how I want most of the world to work.

Let's keep that kind of regulation to pursuits like flying helicopters, not using computers.



This is almost a willful misinterpretation of what I said. I didn't say it should be regulated or illegal. I just expressed a thought that perhaps we shouldn't reorient everything around making things easy for the laziest among us.


Fair enough. I have a bit of a trigger finger reaction to anything that hints at suggesting that regular people shouldn't be trusted to use this stuff.
